I believe Phil can't play drums anymore due to some bone related illness, old age or something.

I have been authorized to reveal the drummer is in fact Stewart Copeland of Animal Logic fame.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

agree, ex banshee (in all ways) budgie would be good - and wouldn't there be a certain symmetry there what with him being in drummonds band back in the day? Did they say what sort of music its goingto be?

re phil collins. Much maligned character I think**, not that I've ever bought anything with his name on the front cover, though Will's a genesis fan isn't he. According to wikipedia:

wikithing wrote:Citing health problems and other concerns, Collins announced on 4 March 2011 that he was taking time off from his career, prompting widespread reports of his retirement.[51] Days later, on 7 March, his UK representative told the press, "He is not, has no intention of, retiring."[52] However, later that day, Collins posted a message to his fans on his own website, confirming his intention to retire in order to focus on his family life.


More amusing perhaps, or maybe not is his audition with genesis:

wikithing wrote:The audition occurred at the home of Peter Gabriel's parents. Prospective candidates performed tracks from the group's second album, Trespass (1970). Collins arrived early, listened to the other auditions while swimming in Gabriel's parents' pool, and memorised the pieces before his turn.


posh boys eh.

Chez
** in that I htink he's an interesting character rather than I want to have his babies. If i did i'd want a pretty stong prenup what with his past record.

I am going to say Simon Finley. His drumming on that Baltic Fleet cd was excellent.
